I am having a weird problem when running krfb (KDE remote desktop sharing). I can see the initial snapshot of the remote desktop after connecting, I can manipulate windows on the remote desktop with the mouse, but my view of the desktop does not change. It remains as the snapshot of the desktop from the moment I connected it. Basically, it seems that GUI updates are not correctly being transferred to the VNC client.
This is regardless of which VNC client software I uses (TightVNC, RealVNC, etc...) - the behavior is the same.
Any help would be immensely appreciated, because I am completely lost as to why GUI updates are not coming from the VNC server to the client.
I usually suggest an alternate VNC server, x11vncserver or FreeNX.
X11 manpage and download
OR
FreeNX from the FreeNX Team PPA.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:freenx-team
NOTE: If you do not have add-apt-repository installed add the following
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
Update Apt
sudo apt-get update
Install FreeNX
sudo apt-get install freenx
